The Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) has expressed their worry over the insecurity ravaging parts of the country.
In the face of this concern, they have declared 40 days of joint prayers against terrorism and banditry.
The Bishops in a statement issued in Abuja on Tuesday signed by President Archbishop Augustine Obiora, decried the pervasive corruption in the land and the nation’s dampening economic outlook.
They passed a verdict, saying the Federal Government had failed to keep its core campaign promises of security, corruption eradication and economic growth.
The Catholic Bishops said they are more troubled when we hear of the massacre presently going on in Southern Kaduna.
They assured the people suffering the incessant attacks in Southern Kaduna to know that the Catholics in Nigeria are praying for them.
